Talks

GOTO is the enterprise software development conference designed for team leads,
architects, and project management and is organized for developers, by developers.
As software developers and architects ourselves, we wanted to craft the ultimate
conference.

The result is a high quality conference experience where a tremendous amount of
attention and investment has gone into having the best content on the most important
topics presented by the leaders in our community, staged in an intimate environment
needed to support as much learning and networking as possible.
